St. Louis earned its fourth straight win with a 2-1 overtime victory over the Detroit Red Wings on Friday. Bill Guerin scored at 1:09 of the extra session.

The right wing leads the Blues with 21 goals and 36 points and had two assists in the West's 12-9 victory on Wednesday in the All-Star Game.

The Predators lead the NHL with 73 points. Nashville improved to 9-1-0 in its last 10 games with a 3-1 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Friday.

Tomas Vokoun steered aside 31 shots to record his fifth straight win while Kevin Klein, Vernon Fiddler and Scott Nichol scored for Nashville.

Vokoun has yielded just nine goals in his last five games and is 8-1-0 in his last nine starts with 17 goals allowed.
